Blue Mountain Beach Vacation Guide

Vacation Guide to Blue Mountain Beach

Relaxation is a recurring theme in this tranquil 30A beach town.  Blue Mountain Beach welcomes you to elevate your vacation in more ways than one.  It features towering sand dunes standing over 65 feet above sea level. They were first mistaken as summits when European sailors discovered this Northwest Florida paradise hundreds of years ago.

HISTORY OF BLUE MOUNTAIN BEACH - presented by the 30A Company...

Named after the signature brilliant blue lupine flowers that grow in the sand dunes, Blue Mountain Beach is truly a special place.   It sits at the highest elevation point along Florida`s entire Gulf Coast.  You`ll find some of the most spectacular views of the Emerald Coast in Blue Mountain Beach. 

Laid-back vibe in Blue Mountain Beach Florida

Blue Mountain Beach is an incredibly peaceful, pleasingly hilly slice of the Emerald Coast that sees much less foot traffic than other 30A communities. Locals and repeat visitors alike always marvel at Blue Mountain`s lack of crowds.  Nestled between the communities of Grayton Beach to the east and Gulf Place / Dune Allen Beach to the west, it is perfectly situated to explore the west end 30A area.  Those that do will find old-fashioned and quaint beach towns with relaxed vibes, sidewalks lined with eclectic eateries, unique shops, and winding walkways that lead to the sparkling Gulf Of Mexico waters.

The fantastic food scene, shopping, and pristine beaches have taken Blue Mountain Beach to new heights.  This "mountain" of a beach town is a favorite among families and foodies. You`ll find a bunch of great restaurants such as Local Catch, Basmati`s Asian Cuisine, Blue Mabel Smokehouse, Cafe Tango and Johnny McTighe`s Irish Pub.

If golf is your thing, make a tee time at one of the many nearby golf courses.  Santa Rosa Golf Club (the best course in SoWal in my option) is just a short drive down 30A from Blue Mountain Beach.  Many of the area golf courses offer beautiful coastal dune lake and/or Gulf Of Mexico views.

Step into a world of outdoor adventure just minutes from your Blue Mountain Beach vacation rental. The unique coastal dune lakes - Little Redfish, Big Redfish and Draper Lake - offer spectacular scenery and are great for kayaking, stand-up-paddle boarding and fishing.  Surf or swim the emerald ocean waters or quietly beachcomb the sugar white sand.

Off the water you`ll find the paved Timpoochee Trail which stretches 22-miles along scenic 30A.  It`s perfect for exploring South Walton from end-to-end. Blue Mountain Beach lies at the doorstep of Point Washington State Forest, a 15,000 acre natural paradise with over ten miles of trails. Hike through thick cypress swamps, pine groves and fields of wildflowers.

30A Escapes has the ideal Blue Mountain Beach rental for you. What better way to end your day than with breathtaking sunset views over the Gulf of Mexico from the comfort of home?
